The Indepdent recently chatted with Nintendo president Satoru Iwata. The publication asked Iwata a bunch questions, and he was more than willing to provide a few juicy tidbits.

Iwata commented on the company’s first-ever operating loss, the surprising success of Wii, Wii U’s asymmetric gameplay, specs and third-parties, the future of 3D, and a whole lot more.

In the process of responding to these topics, there are a few points we’ll mention right off the bat. Iwata said that more third-party Wii U games will be announced this fall, the same time that the console’s price and release date are revealed. He also commented about the future of 3D, noting that it will likely play a minor role in Nintendo’s future systems.

Head past the break for all of Iwata’s comments. Believe me, you won’t want to miss this Q&A roundup.
